Winding its way…
Spend your bicycle vacation in the most famous wine growing region of Germany along one of the most beautiful rivers. Admire the “Kaiserthermen” (Emperor‘s hot springs) and the Porta Nigra – historical buildings of first rank in the Roman city of Trier. By bike you reach famous towns like Bernkastel-Kues, Traben-Trarbach, Cochem, Neumagen-Dhron (the oldest German wine town) and Enkirch, a jewel of the regional medieval “Fachwerk” (half timbered houses) architecture. Visit Castle Eltz and enjoy romantic views on your ride. In the evening you find joy in regional delicacies brought to you by selected restaurants. And don‘t forget to taste the art of the local winegrowers!

Today we recommend a wine tasting.

After a few kilometers you reach Neumagen-Dhron, the oldest wine-growing town in Germany. Admire the relief of the old Roman ship, before you continue your bike ride over the winding cycle path. You can enjoy lunch on the market square of Bernkastel-Kues. You will be amazed by the colorful workmanship and the many small streets. You quickly reach the destination of today’s cycling stage, the famous and traditional Moselle wine town Zeltingen-Rachtig. With around 171 hectares of vineyards and the world-famous vineyards of Zeltinger Himmelreich, Schlossberg, Sonnenuhr and Deutschherrenberg, the town belongs to the large and well-known wine-growing communities on the Mittelmosel.

Today you cycle via Beilstein, the Rothenburg at the Moselle to Cochem. Leave the bike path and visit the picturesque center and the old Reichsburg (11th century). This is really worth it!

In the morning, you can take an excursion (4 km) to the medieval Eltz Castle, one of the most beautiful and best preserved castles in Germany.
